Immigration Court Information System

Are you wanting an update with your immigration court case? Or, did you forget your court date? The Executive Office of Immigration Review’s automated and toll free hotline (1-800-898-7180) is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The EOIR oversees the immigration court cases and also employs the Immigration Judges across the country. Sometimes you may be able to get an update from the automated information system before you receive a decision in the mail from the Court.

(1) Dial 1-800-898-7180 and press “1” to hear the instructions in English or “2” to hear the instructions in Spanish.

(2) An automated operator will ask you to input the eight digits following the “A” in your alien registration number on your touch-tone phone (The system will not work if you still have a rotary or “dial” phone.)

(3) After inputting your alien registration number, the system will ask you to press “1” to confirm that you inputted your number correctly or “2” if you wish to reenter your number.

(4) Once your number has been accepted by the system, the automated operator will spell your full name, last name first. The automated operator will ask you to press “1” to confirm your name or press “2” to reenter your alien registration number. Verify that is your name (same with #3 – Alien number) because you do not want to rely on another person’s information based on a minor mistake.

Once your name has been confirmed, the operator will ask you to input one of the following menu items: (1) Next hearing date, (2) Asylum processing information, (3) Decision information, (4) Case appeal information, or (5) Filing information.
